..•P60 Buckminsterfullerene, Co0, is a large molecule
consisting of 60 carbon atoms connected to form a hollow sphere.
The diameter of a C60 molecule is about 7 x 10-10 m. It has
been hypothesized that C60 molecules might be found in clouds
of interstellar dust, which often contain interesting chemical
compounds. The temperature of an interstellar dust cloud may
be very low, around 3 K. Suppose you are planning to try to
detect the presence of C60 in such a cold dust cloud by detecting
photons emitted when molecules undergo transitions from one
rotational energy state to another.
Approximately, what is the highest-numbered rotational level
from which you would expect to observe emissions? Rotational
levels are I= 0,1,2,3,....

Although the bird enjoys the theoretical maximum efficiency possible, it left to its own devices ever time, the bird will cease “drinking." What are some of the dissipative processes that might cause the bird's motion to cease? Figure 15.21 This novelty toy, known as the drinking bird, IS an example of Carnot's engine. It contains methylene chloride (mixed with a dye) in the abdomen, which boils at a very low temperature—about 100°F. To operate, one gets the bird's head wet. As the water evaporates, fluid moves up into the head, causing the bird to become top-heavy and dip forward back into the water. This cools down the methylene chloride in the head, and it moves back into the abdomen, causing the bird to become bottom heavy and tip up. Except for a very small Input of energy—the original head- wetting—the bird becomes a perpetual motion machine of sorts.

It's worth mentioning that the ideal gas law assumes we can ignore things like the volume of individual molecules and the attraction between particles. So if we say something like "Pretend we have an ideal gas in a box," we are quite literally pretending, because there is no ideal gas! But this equation is a statement about the relationship of units to each other, and thus is useful for comparing quantities in an approximate way. In practice, chemists might measure the deviation from the ideal gas law in order to deduce information about other properties. The tools we developed…arrow_forward

- QUESTION 1 A key result from the kinetic theory of ideal gases is a calculation of the pressure of the gas in terms of the average kinetic energy of translation indicates the average value. As we will learn, particles in a gas have a range of velocities, so angle brackets indicate an average over the different velocities. The result from kinetic theory expresses the pressure p in terms of the average kinetic energy Now for the Question: A room is filled with an ideal gas at a temperature T= 362 K and pressure p = 2 atmospheres (abbreviated atm). The dimensions of the room are 8 m x 8 m x 7 m. Note that 1 atm = 1.013 x 10° Pa, where a pascal (Pa) is aNm (Newton, not number, per meter squared).
